Simba

Male · Adult · 4 years

Simba kam nach dem Tod seines Besitzers gemeinsam mit Nala und Balou zu uns ins Tierheim. Sein bisher vertrautes Leben hat sich damit vollkommen verändert und auch Simba zeigt sich in der neuen Umgebung noch scheu und zurückhaltend. Für ihn suchen wir ein besonders ruhiges Zuhause bei geduldigen Menschen, die ihm Zeit lassen und nicht erwarten, dass er sofort Nähe sucht. Sichere Rückzugsmöglichkeiten und ein möglichst geregelter Alltag können ihm dabei helfen, nach und nach Vertrauen zu entwickeln. Simba ist Wohnungshaltung gewohnt. Da er bisher mit anderen Katzen zusammengelebt hat, stellen wir uns für ihn ein Zuhause bei einer bereits vorhandenen, sehr ruhigen und sozialen Wohnungskatze vor. Gesucht werden Menschen, die Freude daran haben, einem zurückhaltenden Kater ohne Druck die Zeit zu schenken, die er für einen Neuanfang braucht.

About Simba

What life with Simba looks like

Simba is a adult cat waiting at Tierheim Linz in Linz.

An adult cat usually shows their personality within a week. Give them a quiet room with everything they need (food, water, litter, hiding spot) and let them choose when to explore. Don't force interaction — every cat decides for themselves when a new home counts as home.

🇦🇹Adopting from Austria

Austrian shelters follow the federal Tierschutzgesetz framework: adopters sign a Schutzvertrag (protection contract) committing to the animal's welfare. Spay/neuter, microchip, and vaccinations are included; fees typically range €150–€350.

Frequently asked

Adopting Simba, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Simba?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Tierheim Linz handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Simba on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Simba if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Tierheim Linz will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Simba already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most cats on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Simba isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Tierheim Linz early rather than rehoming privately; they know Simba and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (DE). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
